So let's get a big hoo-ah for the fellas that got it done so far. I haven't checked the numbers for certain but I'm think we're sitting at around a $400 pot. That ain't bad.

For those of you that haven't Today is the final day to post pictures (enter the challenge). If they aren't up by the end of the day then you just donated your entry fee...and we thank you.

I'll do a big time photo edit (after today's deadline is passed) and see if I can get everyone's pic's together to do a handy dandy comparison. Maybe we can get everyone to post a little bit about your plans and any obstacles you think you'll run in to and what you've done to address them.

Wow....I just can't get over all the excitment that I started with a simple little challenge to motivate me! I am so excited! got my lazy ash outta bed and worked out for the first ime in well over 9 months....all because of this challenge.

Best of luck to all the guys and gals who are doing this. I admire each of you.

Globbla and Roland....thanks for all your help with getting this organized and started.

Thumbs up

Good Luck Guys! I'm sending everyone good vibes to keep on track and kicking ass. Just try to keep the grunting and ass slapping stuff to a reasonable level though Seriously its great to see lots of people jumping on board and I wish everyone the best.

(*my 2 cents*)
The guy in the hubba hubba pic- those legs are scary!! Not all us girls like our guys to look like a cover model or behemoth muscle stud

Ok.....heres my plans.

I will be following a low carb diet around 2800 cals a day. My workouts will be 3 full body workouts that follow a daily undulating periodization. My cardio will consist of 3 days of HIIT on the tred mill or stairmill. One day a week i will do a slow and steady cardio followed by some serious foam rolling and stretching.

Some things I will have to overcome during this challenge is satisfaction early. I feel my biggest struggle will be when I loose 35 more lbs and get to 200lbs at this wieght i feel i would be ok with that. But my goal is to be shredded not just athletic looking!

So here it begins today, good luck to all but just let it be known I WILL KICK SOME ASS! Some friendly shit talkin

They can find the time for more than 23,000 combined posts, yet Ninja and Lost Dog wait until the last possible moment to post pics.

That kind of procrastination is the reason they will lose.

Red's panties are in a twist because ...well, they're panties, first of all. But also because RedWifey is cooking chick food from NROL4W, so he's got some hormone issues going on. Even more than usual, it seems.
